when the poetry begins


my quill spells my soul
my soul opens like a book
words embossed in ink
they unfurl the suspense of
inquisitive, famished hearts…

teasing a thousand
sensations that beg fulfillment
a divine finesse..
when the poetry begins
art glorifies the yearning…

  1. I like this.
    What I call my “poetry” is just what comes out of me sometimes. Just a flow. It just happens. It feels like poetry.

    I’m not technically a poet and I don’t know a lot about form, but I seem to think/write poetically at times. It’s poetry to me anyway.

    I like the way you write.
    I’m glad you visited so that I could find you and read your work. I think you can find mine by searching poetry/poem on my page…..I hope you find something you like!
